Kent
Sharon, as you know by now, doesn't have much of a business district. We have lots (read: about a dozen) of little shops, but nothing that would draw tourists and weekenders to walk around town. Now even the pizza shop is closing and up for sale, leaving us with a grand total of zero restaurants. Would somebody PLEASE come open up a nice coffee shop/breakfast and lunch place?
Meanwhile, an excellent alternative is Kent. It's about 20 minutes south, and has dozens of wonderful bakeries, bookstores, shops of all kinds - I'd have to guess close to 100 retail establishments of one kind or another. Kent has its share of celebrities too, by the way - Lynne Redgrave and Patti Lupone both live here!

You are being kind in saying Sharon "doesn't have much of a business district."
Heck, even Amenia has a few places to have lunch. You know things are bad when the only eatery in town is the hospital cafeteria, Alas, Sharon does not appear to be very business-friendly.
If I were going to open a restaurant, I would consider other locales. Although word on the street is that there has been some activity lately at the former Country Corner diner, so maybe there is some hope.
Where is/are your bookstore(s, I understand you are having a book signing in town on Friday the 1st of Aug.? True?????
Anonymous,
I don't know if you meant to ask this question of the person who owns the bookstore - I just put a picture of it on my blog - I'm not the owner and have no information about it! Sorry!
